Munich #2 - 8/16-18

 Munich again!!!! So much to see :) Took in some new sights and saw some AMAZING churches. First stop, Kloster Brauerei in Scheyern. Of course, we left the camera in the car so we only got this pic on the way out of the brewery and market ------------->
Oh well. We walked around the Abbey, which is a home for Benedictine Monks, who make beer and honey. Had a beer there at the restaurant (of course) and a few Bretzeln(pretzels).
Remember, you can click on the pics to see them bigger. :D
 Some lovely countryside for your viewing pleasure.



 Just a church on our way to Munich------------>

 These next few aren't really in order...but here are the awesome beers we had at the Hirschau Biergarten(beer garden).








 The Palace ----------------------------------->

 Looking out from the palace, onto the fountain and several Greek god statues.
 Natalya making Mikey laugh.




 Kids being goofy :) - see the swan in the back???


 Lovely swans in the back area of the Palace - so cool!

 AWWWW!!!!!!----------------------------------------->
 Zeke, don't get too close, they're pretty, but not nice.
 An awesome park with deer right next to a place we had lunch at!





 And a playground, too, in the Englisher Garten.










 It's a good thing the kids love being at a hotel so much LOL.
 On the way to Garmisch, about 2 hours south of Munich. So beautiful! Although, this is one of the only months there isn't snow all over the mountains there.











 The water was so clear!!!!!!!!!!



 Here we are driving towards the Andechs Abbey in Andechs, about an hour from Munich.
